Jan 12, 2011 - I've had Columbia College's copy of John Updike's collected early (short) stories in my possession for three months. For myself, I was happiest reading him in his stories of childhood and revisiting childhood scenes. Patrick also paid homage to Updike's story “The Christian Roommates” last year. Oct 30, 2013 - The Library of America recently published John Updike's Collected Stories in two volumes. May 31, 2011 - John Updike (1932 - 2009) wrote dark, complex and delicate short stories about everyday life in small towns and the everyday sorrows of husbands and wifes. Jan 27, 2009 - With his close association with The New Yorker, his stories were naturally covered in the two roundups of the magazine's fiction that we've done: 2005 and 2008. 14 hours ago - Julian Barnes mocks some top authors sex-writing gaffes—including John Updike's comparison of the male member to a yam—and explains the problem in a wonderful, all-too-brief and not particularly R-rated collection of academic essays called Explaining the Explicit, published as a Kindle single. Twelve bad and uninspired stories from the same collection:. It was also, at the time he became "John Updike", perfectly OK (with the powers that were) to see women this way. May 12, 2014 - But Updike's stories – there are 186 of them in the two-volume Library of America edition – remain for me the chief glory of his collected works. Jan 28, 2009 - It left you figuratively shaking in your shoes, or at least hoping that the men in your own life weren't, secretly, seeing you that way – as a collection of compelling sexual organs the possession of which doomed you to ridicule-worthy tastes and concerns.
